SOCKET CONNECTOR FOR A CONNECTOR SYSTEM
A socket connector includes a housing having a pin access opening through a bottom open to a cavity configured to receive a pin. The socket connector includes a socket in the cavity electrically connected to a pin. The socket connector includes a latch movably received in a latch pocket to engage the pin to secure the socket connector to the pin. The latch includes a latch release accessible exterior of the housing to release the latch. The latch release moves the latch between a latched position and a clearance position. A latching rib of the latch engages the pin in the latched position and is released from the pin in the clearance position to allow uncoupling of the socket connector from the pin.
BATTERY INTERFACE FOR AN ELECTRICAL DEVICE
An interface (30) between a battery and an electrical device, the interface (30) comprising: a male terminal (24) and a female terminal (26) configured to receive the male terminal (24); the female terminal (26) having a female contact (36) of conductive material and the male terminal (24) having a male contact (32) of conductive material; wherein, at least one of the female contact (36) and the male contact (32) are resiliently deformable such that insertion of the male terminal (24) in the female terminal (26) provides an area (40) of face to face contact in which the male contact (32) and the female contact (36) conform to each other.

FEMALE TERMINAL AND FEMALE TERMINAL MANUFACTURING METHOD
A female terminal includes a terminal body having a bottom wall and a spring member mounted in the terminal body. The terminal body includes a connecting tube portion continuous with the bottom wall, a tab of a male terminal being inserted into the connecting tube portion, a resilient contact piece configured to resiliently contact the tab inserted into the connecting tube portion, and a through hole penetrating through the bottom wall. The spring member is made of metal having a higher elastic modulus than the resilient contact piece. One end part of the spring member biases the resilient contact piece in a direction toward the tab by coming into contact with the resilient contact piece. The other end part of the spring member is located in a region inside a hole edge part of the through hole with the spring member mounted in the terminal body.
FEMALE TERMINAL
A female terminal is provided with a pair of connecting portions arranged to face each other across a male terminal insertion gap, a spring member held on the pair of connecting portions while sandwiching the pair of connecting portions and configured to bias the pair of connecting portions in mutually approaching directions along a facing direction, and a stopper protrusion projecting on at least one of the pair of connecting portions and configured to come into contact with the other of the pair of connecting portions to hold the male terminal insertion gap by restricting displacements of the pair of connecting portions in the approaching directions. Displacements in separating directions of the pair of connecting portions are allowed against a biasing force of the spring member, whereby a male terminal is press-fit into the male terminal insertion gap and disposed between the pair of connecting portions.

HIGH-VOLTAGE CONNECTOR FOR ENERGY STORAGE
Provided is a wiring device for a high-voltage connector for energy storage. The high-voltage connector for energy storage includes a socket and a plug. The socket comprises a socket body, a mounting flange, an electrical isolation groove, a fastening ring, a pin and an anti-electric shock cap. The plug comprises a plug main body, a pressing buckle, hand-held pluggable portions, a hammering boss, a jack, a crown spring, a wiring cup opening, and a locking slider, waterproof lock washer and protective back cover.
IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES HAVING MODULAR LEAD BORES
Implantable medical devices have modular lead bores that are constructed from individual lead bore modules. A given modular lead bore utilizes the number of individual lead bore modules necessary for the particular implantable medical device. Each lead bore module has a lead bore passageway and a feedthrough passageway. An electrical contact is present within the lead bore passageway of each lead bore module and the electrical contact is aligned to the lead bore passageway of a lead bore module. Hermetic feedthrough assemblies are also present within the lead bore passageway of each lead bore module. A feedthrough pin passes through a hermetic feedthrough assembly within a feedthrough passageway of each lead bore module. Each feedthrough pin is electrically coupled to a corresponding electrical contact and the medical device circuitry.
